Special session on streak camera dynamic range measurement definition
Abstract
An agreed-upon dynamic range measurement definition for use by commercial manufacturers of electro-optic streak cameras is presented and is as follows: the ratio of the peak amplitudes of an upper and lower usable signal. The limits of usable signals are to be the points at which the pulse width at half maximum is broadened or changed by 20% as referenced to the width of a pulse near the middle of the dynamic range.
